Very nice idéa!

But it seems you have to read a lot of rfc's for that.

An easier way might be to file a "bug" report in debian like
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=379838
and other distributions.

Or the lilypond installation might add it.

Wery nice examples, but I must say my first reaction is the it looks 
like a stand, a claw, or something, but not a note.
